Answer :
Answer:
The answer is x= -1.9.
Use the 3 to multiply the number and the letter in the bracket... which is...
3x-24=-29.7.
3x=-29.7+24.
3x=-5.7.
x=-5.7/3.
x=-1.9.
x is -1.9
Solve 3(x-8) = -29.7
Remove the brackets by dividing both sides by 3:
3(x-8) / 3 = -29.7 / 3
You will be left with:
x - 8 = -9.9
Take -8 to the other side so that you can be left with x. When you do this, the sign will change from negative to positive:
x = -9.9 + 8
x = 1.9
x is therefore -1.9
